RGRTPod Clip: Is Race A Factor In Angel Reese / Caitlin Clark Rivalry

[@livetotell100]

The only person I see making this into a race issue is Angel Reese and a lot of other players. Clark was snubbed from the Olympic team, and gets cheap shotted on the court. And what does she say? It is what it is. It's basketball. I just want to play. While the other players all talk crap and make it racial.

[@MadddyDawn]

Angel is acting like a brat. They are both women and should acknowledge they both are good. Woman are tore down enough we don’t need to tear each other down. Yonni would racism be involved if they were both the same race? Quit separating our youth and teach them to become one. Things are so far beyond black and white now! If we don’t learn to stand together divided we all will fall.

[@yonnirude]

Ummmm who’s separating the youth? You’re the one name calling saying that Angel is a brat. Tsk tsk tsk. And they both admitted that the other is good. There is mutual respect there. It’s the fanatics and people on the sideline that made race an issue… neither AR nor CC did. 🤷🏽‍♂️

[@Faithitis]

Its about basketball....😂😂😂😂😂🏀🏀

No, race isn't a factor and BP need to learn how to get their own sh## and stop worrying WP about theirs. WP have the right to celebrate their own. The same as blks celebrating Jordan, the Williams sisters, Tiger Woods. The only difference is, BP heros are also pouring their funds into the YT community. And there is no rivalry. You have to be on the same level for a rivalry. Caitlin has earned what she has and Reese is riding her coattail, the same as she did at LSU. She was never the best player on the team, she just got all the accolades for riding her teammates coattail. When she was benched, LSU still went on winning.

[@yonnirude]

Well that’s a horrible take. They play different positions and help their teams in different ways. Today was the first game I saw Angel out score Caitlin and that’s simply becuz Caitlin has to adjust her game to the WNBA and get team involved. And if Angel is so bad why does she have a ring and Caitlin doesn’t? Teams win championships not players.

[@JasonVectrex_187]

No. The media and fans make it about race

[@justterryl7908]

Exactly

[@yonnirude]

That we all agree on. Angel and Caitlin have no issue with each other as players or people. It since the media and the fans make it about race… please tell @justterryl that I am right! 😂

[@v2807]

Didn’t listen yet, just responding to the question. First, there is no rivalry from Caitlin Clark’s point of view. Secondly, Angel Reece is the biggest promoter of the nonexistent rivalry. Thirdly, I think some in the media hype it in a way that emphasizes race. Finally, I don’t think we, as fans, should join in the racial part of the manufactured drama, in this “rivalry” or any of the other clashes in the wnba.

[@yonnirude]

Actually... it is a rivalry. In college they went 1-1 against each other and although the Fever are up 2-0 in WNBA, it is still a rivalry. What neither consider the other... is an enemy. That's what the "fans" do.

[@v2807]

@@yonnirude Caitlin said it isn’t a rivalry. So what if they’ve played each other before? If one of the 2 doesn’t think it is a rivalry, it isn’t.

[@yonnirude]

@@v2807 so EVERYBODY has to say it is a rivalry for it to be one? I didn’t see that in the manual. 🤷🏽‍♂️

[@anthonydelke3193]

no them fake ass eyelashes and hair are the real rivalry with reeces head.

[@rhejiwyche3578]

Race is ALWAYS a factor...... now the hate is coming back like the 60s.... esau always hated Jacob.....

[@jeriscully]

Race isn't a factor here jealousy & hatred are.

[@papadre70]

Your comments are adalence.Angel is being made by the Media outlets to be the villan. But Ckark is a major trash talker so the yr Iowa defeated South Carolina she waved off the South Carolina player and the Media made her the Darling of Wemens Basketball. Then when Angel did something similar in the Championship game the Media made her the Villan But Angel impact is greater. Look how she got most of the ladies dressing 👗 pregame.instead of looking like Butch.

[@samanthaharrington8713]

It doesnt have ish to do with race, its about basketball... CC can ball her ass off and has a likeable peraonality and AR cant ball and doesnt have a likeable personality....

[@misc5831]

Yes race is a factor! Caitlin Clark is 13th in average scoring in the WNBA! 13th! That means 13 other players score more than her per game!!!! Yet she gets all the hype!!!!!!!

[@benclements5808]

how race a factor???

[@anthonydelke3193]

Shes also a rookie so I'd say that's pretty good. it would be if they were an NBA rookie being top 13 in the whole league first year? yeah you'd probably get rookie of the year for that in the way they do in the NBA. Clark is averaging 16.2 points, 5.4 rebounds and 6.2 assists, putting her on pace to be the fourth player ever to average at least 15 points, five rebounds and five assists in a season. She leads all rookies in scoring, assists and 3-pointers made. Among all players, she is fourth in assists and third in 3s. lol yeah she sounds like a trash player lol go back to watching tiktok or something. opps did i make you out to be a liar? my bad.

[@anthonydelke3193]

looking at the rest of her stats on the box scores only thing she needs to do is stop turning the ball over. she gets 5.5 a game. once again a rookie all in time. if the worst thing about her is turning the ball over 5 times a game id be ok with that
